From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 200

They all started talking nonsense, isn't it more serious?

With a sneer full of anger, Shangguan Xinrou gritted her teeth and said word by word: "You know whether I am crazy about gains or losses. Mei Xin, it's useless if you don't want to admit it. Facts are facts, and no one can change them if they are connected by blood. You are the bastard born between me and King Huai of Chu, you..."

"Slap the mouth!" The words moved, and Shangguan Xinrou was knocked to the ground with a slap. In the blink of an eye, her fair and tender face was swollen, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

The anger that had been suppressed again and again was burning like a raging fire in Mei Xin's heart. She was afraid of getting pregnant, so she restrained herself as much as possible: "If you dare to talk nonsense and pretend to be crazy, I will kill that bastard immediately."

Even if she has no memory of her previous life, she will never believe her lies. She looks like Mei Zhannan since she was a child, almost a replica of him. bastard.

Although Cheng Sichu is a daughter, she is the lifeblood of Shangguan Xinrou, especially when her son is not by her side, she gives all her love to her little daughter.Of course, the most important thing is that Cheng Sichu was brought up by her, and she has deep feelings: "How dare you!"

Life is going so smoothly and she has never put Mei Xin in her eyes, so that at this point she is still instinctively arrogant.So, glaring at her, she wished she could pounce on her and tear Mei Xin to pieces.

Mei Xin was too lazy to talk nonsense with her, so she just sneered and said: "If you dare to try it, you will know."

When King Huai of Chu entered the palace to beg the Empress Dowager, he had obviously abandoned her.In this case, let alone Cheng Sichu, even she herself, King Huai of Chu, would not care about her.

Thinking of Mei Xin killing the two martial arts wives she invited from outside without hesitation, Shangguan Xinrou hesitated.After thinking about it, she raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth. She sat up straight and said, "Forget it, tell me, what do you want to do?"

Clearly aware that Mei Xin in front of her is no longer the eldest daughter who only pleases her, and Shangguan Xinrou is no longer playing tricks.Originally, she wanted Mei Xin to believe her words, thinking that she, like Cheng Sichu, was the daughter of King Huai of Chu, so that she would let their mother and daughter go out, and would not turn to Mei Zhannan again.

And as long as she can go out, she will definitely be able to contact King Huai of Chu, and he will come to rescue them in a short time.King Huai of Chu was backed by the Empress Dowager, even the Emperor couldn't do anything about him, let alone Mei Zhannan.Therefore, as long as she goes out, as long as she can see King Huai of Chu, the lives of their mother and daughter will be saved.

In the end, it was nothing more than taking the child and leaving, and she went back to her natal home.Heli can remarry. After a while, this matter will slowly pass, and it will be fine for her to bring the child into Chuhuai Palace in a fair manner.

I have to say that she thought beautifully, but it was a pity that King Huai of Chu performed so well on weekdays that he completely coaxed and deceived her.

Seeing that she finally stopped pretending, Mei Xin said coldly: "Nothing, I can't sleep at night and come to chat with you. After all, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years, so we should have a good chat. You don't know yet, do you?" Today King Huai of Chu went to the palace to meet the Empress Dowager and said that you shamelessly seduced him, plotted against him, plotted against him, and gave birth to Cheng Sichu without telling him."

"Nonsense, I am in love with the prince, he would never say that." Shangguan Xinrou almost blurted out with his eyes wide open and fierce.

Seeing that she believed in King Huai of Chu, Mei Xin smiled, and said lightly: "The empress dowager was furious, and the emperor knew about it. Guess how the emperor punished him?"

Shangguan Xinrou is not stupid, on the contrary, if she was stupid, she would not be able to bribe Mei Zhong and the others, and it would be impossible for her to be exposed now.

Knowing that the empress dowager loves her son, but the emperor has been dissatisfied with King Huai of Chu for a long time, she opened her mouth and asked, "How did you punish him?"

Mei Xin didn't intend to hide it from her, and said truthfully: "I was beaten with a board, my feet were grounded, and I was fined three years of salary. Once the year is over, I will return to the fief, and I am not allowed to set foot in the capital again without a summons."

This kind of punishment seems innocuous to Mei Xin, but to Shangguan Xinrou, it is a bolt from the blue.She was shocked and said in disbelief: "Impossible, you are lying to me, no matter how angry the emperor is, he will never let the prince leave the capital. No, not only the emperor, the empress dowager is so old, she is absolutely impossible Let the prince go to fief the land."

Shangguan Xinrou is very sure of this, because the empress dowager has always felt that letting the eldest son become the emperor owes the younger son.And this is also the reason why she has always indulged King Huai of Chu, and it is also the reason why the emperor did not pursue his nonsense again and again.

She had expected that she would not believe it, and Mei Xin was not in a hurry, and continued to say: "The Empress Dowager is indeed unwilling, but what can I do if she is unwilling again. Once the news gets out, it will chill the hearts of the officers and men, and it will also chill the hearts of everyone in the Mei family. No matter how important a son is, no matter how much he loves him, he is still not as good as these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains. What's more, the empress dowager is just the empress dowager. It is not the emperor who is in charge of the country, how to deal with it is not a matter of the emperor's words."

Speaking of which, Mei Xin pulled the cloak on her body, and continued: "You were so daring because you saw this point at the beginning, right? Hmph, it's a pity, you forgot, King Huai of Chu is just an idler with no real power. Prince, the most important thing is to cause trouble for the emperor every day, and the emperor has long been disgusted with him. This time it is entirely for the empress dowager's face, and you are the one who took the blame. That's why the punishment is so light. In the future, I'm afraid It's never been easier."

Returning to the fief is easy to say, and it depends on whether she agrees or not.

"What do you mean, what do you want me to take the blame for?" Instinctively, she didn't believe what Mei Xin said, nor did she want to believe it. After Shangguan Xinrou finished speaking, she fell into deep thought.

Mei Xin felt that she was really in too deep, and this fully demonstrated how much she loved King Huai of Chu: "Xiao Qichen, the former commander of the Imperial Forest Army, came here. Not only did he take away all the maids and women in your yard You also took away everyone who knew you had an affair with King Huai of Chu. I sent people to follow them, but those people were not taken into the palace, but were all taken to mass graves and killed. You said the emperor quietly sent people Come, take them away quietly, why kill them?"

The answer was about to come out, but Shangguan Xinrou still didn't want to believe it. She looked at Mei Xin in a daze and asked, "Why?"

"Because to save King Huai of Chu's life, all the insiders must be killed, and you are no exception. It's just that the emperor was afraid that my father would have no place to vent his anger when he woke up, so he didn't take you two away. Shangguan Xinrou, You were abandoned by King Huai of Chu, abandoned, can't you see such a simple and obvious thing?"
